IHC reserves verdict over Qadri's appeal

ISLAMABAD: Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Wednesday reserved its verdict over the challenge filed by Mumtaz Qadri against his death penalty over the murder of former Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, ARY News reports.

Advocate General Islamabad Abdul Rauf Siddiqui, in his arguments, said that no one has the right to take another’s life whatever the character he posseses. He added that it is not correct to say that there was a conversation held between Taseer and Qadri before the incident took place.

“The law must be implemented at any cost”, he said.

The court reserved its verdict over the appeal after listening the arguments.
